ok FIXED!!!!

nice batrep! Guard ftw.

thanks, i read ur bat rep too, IG all the way.

indeed, IG al the way.

Good list I love playing IG in low points, 800 and under, and high point, 1850+, though i don't really like running them in between those points for some reason i cannot make a good list for it.

IG really shine in low point in high point games. usually I play at 1500 though with this list

Troops
(10) Veteran Squad w/ 3 grenade launchers and: 85 pts
(10) Veteran Squad w/ 3 melta guns, and power sword: 110 pts
(10) Veteran Squad w/ 3 melta guns: 100 pts
(10) Veteran Squad w/ 3 grenade launchers: 85 pts
(10) Veteran Squad w/ 3 Grenade launchers: 85 pts
(10) Veteran Squad w/ 3 Grenade Launchers: 85 pts
HQ
(5) Company Command Squad w/ 4 melta guns, and krak Grenades: 100 pts
(1) Priest w/ Eviscerator: 60pts
Fast Attack
(3) Scout Sentinel w/ Auto Cannons: 120 pts
(2) Scout Sentinels w/ Missile Launchers: 90 pts
Heavy Support
(1) Leman Russ Battle Tank w/ Heavy Bolters, and Las-Cannon: 165 pts
(1) Leman Russ Battle Tank w/ Multi Meltas, and Las Cannon: 195 pts
(1) Leman Russ Executioner w/ Plasma Cannons: 220
Total: 1500

4/5 time it works for me against whatever i go against, what with 3 heavy tanks, and 5 sents. as well as over 60 infantry. I used to have a vendetta that teamed w/ the the vet squad that has the power sword and the priest, they were suicide jumpers to take out the heavy stuff(eviscerators fun for that lol)

Congrats on the win and a big for using sentinels.

Lascannons seem a bit like overkill though I'd have gone with AC seeing that your outflanking.

If you hadn't planned on moving why didn't you take any HWT in the vet squads?

Rokkit Launcha Kan shoots at squad C and kills the sgt

why'd you lose the sgt?

Without being rude is the ork player new to the hobby?

The Warboss should have probably started at least on the deployment line - though probably better without Mega Armour and in a boyz mob.

I can't believe he only moved 1" three times! I assume you weren't making use of his Independent Character status - which gives him the Move Through Cover rule - ie roll 3 dice and pick highest. Though even played without, 3 lots of double ones, while possible, is highly improbable.

He was running as well right? (And he should have been, rather than shooting, until he got into assault range of something...)

Anyway - congrats on your win and thanks for sharing!

@spankhammer, well...were both still pretty new, and as a result have trouble with some of the rules which should answer Arakasi's question as well =), we used to make it up as we went, but are now make big efforts to play by the book (the very heavy and expensive book). O, and @arakasi no he was just shooting w/ the boss, idk why he just was.
-something im not clear on, if he shot at me, hits, wounds, and i fail my saving throw who picks the casualty, me right?

That cool, man when I started me and friend played with the book open an checked everything. makes the game slow to start with but it's a good way to learn. Later on everytime an issue came up we would roll off and write it down to check afterwards.

Dude you pick who dies. Well technically you allocate wounds so he would have to cause 10 wounds to put one on everyone and then you role for saves. With guard always put them on lasgunners its what they are there for.

Squad B shoots at mob B and kills 3, they take/pass morale check.
Squad C shoots at mob B and kills 3, they take/fail morale check, and fall back.

Not trying to be rude but just wanted to let you know that a squad only takes a morale check after all your squads are done shooting at them so they should have only needed to make 1 morale check for that round of shooting.
Thanks for taking the time to post a battle report!

sometimes the most simplistic fights are the best!

sweet battle use the drink trays from MicDonalds or Dunken Dounuts for bunkers maybe and may the emperor be with you cause he was then!
